Poinsettia Droop

YO!

My Christmas poinsettia, guaranteed to last til' January 6th by Mr Tesco is NOT gonna make it!! Me thinks the guarantee only covered the poor thing if it stayed put in the nice warm shop and didn't have to face the Arctic conditions that blew across the car-park when I bought it. I have a handful of green leaves left and a few twiggy stems...if anyone has a Poinsettia Resuscitation Gadget to hand, send it round pronto!

Todays card was made using a digi from Pollycraft, coloured with PM's & Stickles, the DP is from DCWV with red gem snow (random I know!) and a wee bow (Eat yer heart out MINA!!!)

Don't feel so bad - I suck at keeping Poinsettias alive, too. It's a wonder I have a Christmas cactus that's about 4 years old now. I've never moved it out of it's original tiny pot, and the darn thing flowers every winter. Must be cuz I forget to water it all summer long.

Hello, a quicklette visit to earth. Would you be suprised to hear that I kill all poinsettias that are given to me?! Not deliberately you understand! Loving the cute image, very tweet. Did I tell you your luuverly card arrived? I meant to... xxx

Hi! Oh you've got me worried now... I just bought a Ponsettia yesterday... and I'm not great at keeping them alive to fingers crossed! Great little card, love the robin image! Thanks for joining us at Cupcake this week! Shelly x
